This release of XenForo 1.0.4 follows our principle that third-point (x.x.X) releases should always be more stable than the preceding version, so for the most part you will not find new features in 1.0.4. Major new features will be reserved for second point versions (x.X.x).

Company Info

XenForo 1.0.3 introduced the ability to use the Imagick PECL extension instead of the standard GD image processor in XenForo. However, several customers with ImageMagick installed on their servers were confused that they were unable to use the Imagick option in XenForo.

To be clear, Imagick is a PHP extension that embeds ImageMagick functionality into the language. Having ImageMagick installed on your server is not an indication of the presence of Imagick.

The only way to tell if Imagick is installed is to ask PHP if the extension is present. This will show up as an Imagick block in PHP Info.

To ease this confusion, XenForo 1.0.4 now prevents you from being able to select the Imagick option if PHP does not report its presence on your server.
